Dear White Liberals,

Our job now is to spend all our privilege.

Our job now is to help passive allies to become active allies.

Our job now is to use our bodies when we are proximate to the frontline of fascism.

I feel for kids growing up in today's world...but...why do (mostly) cishet white boys get so much leeway to be assholes. Every gay kid I know grew up with ZERO role models and were ACTUALLY told how we were garbage and not even human...and none of us grew up to be Nazis.
